38

昨天舅舅和我說，現在部落格縮水了，如果用好聽的說法是：我學會安靜。其實是因為想要專心做繪本，時間分配的架構有些改變。

In the family gathering yesterday, my uncle said I do not tend to spend so much time as before on my blog. Well, to put it beautifully, I'd say that I've learned to be quiet. But in fact, it's because I want to devote as much time as I can to making picture books. 

        今年國曆和農曆生日重疊，還是放假的中秋節，生日當天不用上班就已經很幸福，而且今天之前已經收到很多動人的祝福和禮物，所以沒有什麼大心願，只希望能夠待在書桌前認真畫圖，晚上邊運動邊賞月。

   This year my birthday on the solar and lunar calendars fall on the same day. I've got a fantastic gift of not having to go to work on my birthday, which is the mid-autumn festival. Besides, I've received a lot of wonderful best wishes and gifts. I'd be really greedy to ask for more. I want nothing more than spending the whole day writing and drawing. The evening will be reserved for a romantic walk under the moonlight. 

        只要可以一直畫圖，無論是什麼挑戰，我都可以找到答案，這就是最好的禮物了。

   As long as I can draw, I can make sense of anything. That is the best gift I can ever get in the world.
